Konoha Hypocrite - Chapter 418: Repression By Force
Seeing that Uchiha Tunan had made the second-in-command -Aburame Ryoma submit to him, the members of the Dark Group could not help but feel a sense of satisfaction in their hearts.
Of course, this still had to be blamed on the difference in status between the two parties.
Although there were many restrictions on power, once it could be used, it was basically unsolvable for the inferior.
In this situation, if Aburame Ryoma dared not kneel, it would immediately be taken away. No one could say anything.
If Ryoma wanted to save his life, he could not give Uchiha Tunan any excuse.
Uchiha Tunan stood in front of Ryoma with his hands behind his back and said in a calm tone,
“I now suspect that you are related to the framing case. Take off your mask and let me see if you are the criminal.
If you don’t cooperate, then I will forcibly take you back in the name of obstructing the Black Operation.”
Although at the level of Ryoma, its true appearance was not a big secret for the same department.
But whether it was the Root or the Dark Group, except for the Commander-level, they all needed to wear masks.
Uchiha Tunan opened his mouth to ask Ryoma to violate the rules of the Root.
At this time, Ryoma knew that Uchiha Tunan wanted to anger him, but it did not dare to refute, and could only do as he said.
He raised his right hand, knocked on the mask on his face, and slowly took it off.
What entered his eyes was a slightly thin face with a purple mark on the right side of the face.
A pair of numb and lifeless eyes, and the eyes were slightly lowered, but it gave people a vague feeling of maliciousness and coldness.
Ryoma felt the gazes coming from the surroundings, and there was no sadness or joy on his face, allowing the crowd to look at him like they were looking at a monkey.
After a few breaths, Uchiha Tunan shook his head and said,
“Sharp mouth, monkey-like cheeks, prominent cheekbones. As expected, you can’t judge a book by its cover.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the four hidden guards were the first to laugh out loud because they knew that Uchiha Tunan wanted to give face to Ryoma.
With the four hidden guards leading the way, the people of the Dark Group burst into laughter, even if they did not find it funny.
On the other hand, the ninjas from Root were all calm and did not move.
Facing Uchiha Tunan’s insult,Ryoma still had a numb expression. His eyes were lowered and there was no sadness or joy.
Seeing that he could endure so much, Uchiha Tunan turned his spearhead to the group of Root Ninjas.
He immediately pointed at the Root Ninjas and said to Ryoma,
“Tell your men to throw their knives on the ground and squat down with their hands on their heads.
I have plenty of reasons to kill them. ”
Ryoma seemed to not hear him and lowered his head, not saying a word.
After all, these Root Ninjas were his last trump card to save his life.
His side did not dare to take the initiative to attack, and similarly, the Black Group did not dare.
However, he could not refuse openly, so he could only pretend to be deaf and mute.
Seeing that Ryoma was indifferent, Uchiha Tunan chuckled and turned to the group of Root Ninjas.
“Believe me, if I kill you, you will die, and your names will not be engraved with the memorial tablet.”
However, these threatening words did not make the Root Ninjas disarm themselves.
The Root Ninjas all looked at Ryoma, meaning that they were not under the jurisdiction of the Dark Group. At this time, they would only listen to the orders of Ryoma.
Seeing this, the smile on Uchiha Tunan’s face became more and more brilliant.
As a tool, it was a professional conduct.
It seems that the threat is not big enough.
Then, Uchiha Tunan with a smile on his face said in a slightly cold tone:
“The rule of Root should be to be loyal to the Hokage and to Konoha.
The law enforcement of the Anbu was given by the Hokage, representing the entire Konoha.
Could it be that you have betrayed Konoha and are now loyal to a certain person?
If so, not only will you die.
For the safety of Konoha, your family will also need to be investigated and interrogated by the Dark Group.
Do your best to get rid of the traitor.”
An invisible aura immediately wrapped around the group of Root Ninjas, especially the young ones. They were heavily taken care of by Uchiha Tunan.
With that said, the newcomers at Root could no longer bear the pressure. They threw the short blades in their hands on the ground and crouched down with their hands on their heads.
Some people raised their heads, and those who were still swaying left and right could only follow suit.
“Clang —”
“Clang —”
….
With a series of short blades hitting the ground, the remaining Root Ninjas felt more and more pressure.
In the end, there were only a few Root Ninjas who still stubbornly stood in place.
One of the Root Ninjas who was slightly older finally couldn’t hold it in anymore and forcefully said, “Lord Tunan, you can’t do this.”
Uchiha Tunan waved his hand lightly.
The four hidden guards immediately understood and led some of the subordinates of the Dark Group to tie up the remaining Root Ninjas.
However, the Root Ninja who had just retorted was about to break free just as he was about to be tied up.
However, just as he broke free, the figure of “Heaven” appeared behind him, and a sharp short blade quietly slid across his neck.
“Puchi —”
The Root Ninja collapsed to the ground, one hand covering his neck, and the other reaching out towards Ryoma, as if he was asking for help.
After a few breaths, the Root Ninja was lying in a pool of blood with unwillingness in his eyes.
When the remaining Root Ninjas saw that their companions were killed, Ryoma did not issue an order to attack.
After that, it no longer resisted and was obediently taken away by the Dark Group.
“I can.”
Uchiha Tunan let out a soft moan as the corners of his mouth curled into a deep and meaningful smile. He then said to the numb and silent Ryoma,
“You don’t seem to have anything to rely on.
Also, are you going to kneel to me and only kneel half of it? ”
Perhaps the death of his trusted aide had touched the heart of Ryoma.
Ryoma finally had an expression.
Ryoma slowly closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
Then, he knelt down with his other leg and placed his hands on the ground. With his head on the ground, he said in a hoarse voice,
“Lord Tunan, I admit that I have provoked you before. I am willing to make up for my mistakes. Please forgive me.”
When Uchiha Tunan heard this, a look of shock appeared on his face. He immediately laughed angrily,
“What nonsense are you talking about?
Do you think that I am the kind of person who takes revenge for personal grudges?
I admit that we had a little friction, but I have long forgotten about it and did not take it to heart.
This time, I came to find you, it was completely an old case.
Investigate the truth of White Tooth’s suicide.
Today, I called so many colleagues here to ensure the fairness, and public during the investigation of the case. ”
Upon hearing this, Ryoma slowly raised his head and carefully observed Uchiha Tunan’s expression.
He was gradually unable to figure out what the other party’s words were.
Could it be that this fellow was really here for the White Tooth incident?
